Kia Kaha(stay strong in kiwi) Sorry for you loss, Creating memories, living life, I wanted to ask Have you heard of the Carnivore Diet? I’ve been in it for 5 months (since April 2024) I’ve lost 18kg, with the help from KZbinr’s Dr Shawn Baker, Steak and Butter girl and Dr Ken Berry, hope your journey in life gets better, new Subscriber.
@DestinationOffroad4 күн бұрын
Thank you, legend. I have heard of the Carnivore diet. I have been on in many times, but my weight gain was a reaction to some of the medication. Since being off the medication, I have dropped 20kgs since moving to Bathurst, and that is without diet or exercise. I will get back in the water for the body, build a home gym to build my muscles again, and burn the calories.

That is a very long answer to give. But you can get MK, MJ triton manual locking hubs, do not buy ebay specials, they are not strong enough. To do it properly, you need to remove the whole vacuum system, making a custom bracket to retract the pin in the front diff.

Great review, The noise in the background wasn't too much of a bother. What is your view on the material not being a true canvas and do you think it will last 10+ years? Do the sides buckle in stronger wind and rain? If you have been in a rain storm did you get any water in the swag? And lastly if you were to get one of the gen 2's would you go the single or the double swag considering they take up basically the same space in the 4by? Thanks mate!
@DestinationOffroad2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much, I am always picking my videos apart. The material is the same as the Darche 2.5 Xtender and 23Zero Ramblers Den. I have had both those in heavy storms and no leaks. Would I say it will hold up like a traditional canvas? that is a tough one, in some ways yes, and some no. It depends how it is treated. I am rough on my gear so for me, now it is only a back up. I would not use this and have no gone back to my Crashpad. The sides buckle if you haaven't inflated it enough, but if it is inflated completely up they stay rigid. And lastly, would I get the gen2 double, No. The air inflation system is amazing, and some of the features blow the rest away, but for me personally, I will not use the SanHima swags again. The pros and cons are similar to most, the height is amazing but I prefer my traditional Crashpad, 23Zero, Darche, and even Kings. Thank you again for the epic comment. Cheers Dave

I have been camping with tents. Am new to swags and testing out one that was gifted to me "Kings big daddy deluxe". Setup in the back yard and already see all the floors and design ussies in it, not to mention the leaks after a good seasoning. Started tents with a 4 man dome then graduated to 6 man instant popup Coleman. Have to say it has been awesome. packs the same size as a double swag but do have extra space needed for bedding e.g. self inflating mattress. Still love it. Setup[ and pack up is similar to a swag if you are pegging out ground sheet and placing a cover over the top (tarp or something like that to stop the frost). No issues with ventilation or condensation, can stand up to get changed, internal size is as a small bedroom. Only advantage I can see with a good water proof swag is potentially setup and take-down time, possibly stopping the glamping affect. Will let you know my experience as the idea for myself with the swag is 1 night stays and moving on compared to previous base camping. Will test all this winter (real camping season in Vic) lol.

Good to see another Gen 3 out there. Not sure why but this is the first time I've actually checked your channel out. As for the Paj slipping, could it have been the traction control? I have heard people complaining about that off road. Good work cleaning up the rubbish, shame it is needed, others should take their own with them. Also shame to hear about the bakery's. Never been out there but little shops like that are always great to stop in at.
@DestinationOffroad5 ай бұрын
We have always loved the Gen3's, but never bought one until now. I am still ironing out things, but it will be a solid rig soon. The traction control is one thing, but the BFG KO2's are just not the best tyre. We will be changing them to Maxxis like the Challenger. So much better, the rubbish was just lazy people. From glass in the fire pit, to toilet paper everywhere. The toilet paper was buried, like they should and the rest we just picked up. It is a culture that will not be changed unless people are confronted. Thank you for watching the video.

Cheap tyres but are the last model Bridgestone Dualers amd they do well, I don't really have issues on or off road with them. The Paj it's self is a great platform, mine is an NM with the LSD not traction control. Of you want some inspiration I have build and make over videos. Sadly yes we will always have those leaving rubbish but we will also have those of us willing to clean up others mess as well as our own, not that we should have to.
